August 27th - 29th, 2021. Hämeenlinna, Finland.

Suurta urheilun juhlaa jo vuodesta 2000

About

Location

We have a new party place this year! The party will be held in Aulanko, Hämeenlinna at Aulangon Suuri Huvila. The new location is conveniently located close (-ish) to Hämeenlinna center, about 6km away.

There will be your usual Finnish demoparty features, like a few computer places, sauna, palju, lake to drown swim in. More details later (maybe).

Accommodation

There will be some sleeping places at the party place, but the space is very limited. There's a few beds and sofas available and we'll reserve them to organizers and visitors who need them the most. In addition to that, there are no assigned sleeping areas but you can still sleep at the party place if you want. There's also room for tents. Scandic Aulanko hotel is pretty close to the party place, only about 2.5km away and Hämeenlinna center with even more hotels is not that far.

If you want a bed/sleeping spot at the party place, please let the organizers know and we'll see what we can do.

COVID-19 information

Because the pandemic is still very much on, there will be a limited amount of tickets for sale (pending official recommendations for events). We will do our best to keep the party Covid-safe. If you have any symptoms, STAY AT HOME (there will be more parties when you're healthy). The good news is that every Finnish person should have at least one dose of a vaccine by the end of August.
